XFS project quota problem
 
Hello,

I am currently trying to set up project quotas on an XFS filesystem. I have run into a few problems and I am hoping that I can get some help here.

Below is the relevant information, and the error I am getting:

Code:

[root@storage ~]# uname -a
Linux storage.acecomputers.com 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 3 03:28:30 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@storage ~]# cat /etc/mtab

[root@storage ~]# cat /etc/projid

# Format:  username:uid(from prospero)

mturner:506
[root@storage ~]# xfs_quota -x -c 'project -s mturner' /data
Setting up project mturner (path /data/mturner)...
Processed 1 /etc/projects paths for project mturner
[root@storage ~]# xfs_quota -x -c 'limit -p bhard=1024g bsoft=512g mturner' /data
xfs_quota: cannot set limits: Function not implemented

The drive I want the quotas on is /data (the red text in 'cat /etc/mtab'). When applying the 'pquota' flag, I added it to my /etc/fstab file and did 'umount' then 'mount' (instead of using the mount -o remount command).

xfs_quota recognizes the project name and can view the current usage by said project
Code:

[root@storage ~]# xfs_quota -x -c 'print'
Filesystem          Pathname
/data              /dev/sdb1
/data/mturner      /dev/sdb1 (project 506, mturner)
[root@storage ~]# xfs_quota -x -c 'quot -p'
/dev/sdb1 (/data) Project:
9258675128    #0     
102991180    mturner

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

xfs_quota project flag
 
if you setup your project quota it isnt on by default/activated this can be done by following these steps
1. sudo xfs_quota -x (-x is for expert mode for the admin commands)
2. project -s project name or number

if it still doesnt work for you please mail me: philippevdijk63@gmail.com
